Seems like I haven't slept in days
It's like some kind of nightmare, I can't get away
There's a blackbird right outside my door
Seems like it must be there to tell me "Nevermore"
Nevermore will I see you
Nevermore will I hold you
Nevermore will you tell me that it's okay
Seems like this bird won't go away
It's been outside our house for six or seven days
It's watching me like we have met before
But all it seems to say is "Nevermore, nevermore"
Nevermore will I see you
Nevermore will I hold you
Nevermore will you tell me that it's okay
